Abstract: The survey provides state and local government data on full-time and part-time employment, part-time hours worked, full-time equivalent employment, and payroll statistics by governmental function. This survey is conducted as a national census every 5 years, and as a sample survey in each of the 4 intervening years. The Census Bureau provides these data to the Bureau of Economic Analysis for the National Income and Product Accounts. These data are also used to monitor the government sector of the economy and to formulate, develop, and review public policy. Federal agencies, state and local governments, and the private sector all use these data. The respondents to this survey are state and local government officials.
